beauty is in the eye of the beerholder

 Now that you’ve seen the outside of our humble abode, let’s take a tour of the inside. It may help to shotgun a few beers or sip on a couple of glasses of wine prior to reading the rest of this post, sometimes a little buzz makes me feel better about this undertaking too.  
beautiful red awning.

 
living room. front door. green carpet. mint colored walls. vom.

  
in our kitchen!

 
Reeds in the kitchen, gorgeous floors.

 
kitchen- nice molding around windows. new (ish) cabinets, random stove placement.

 
close up of the heinous laminate floors.

 
drop ceilings in the living room


 
View out of the kitchen. Notice we're one level up, perks of being on a hill!

 
a Barbie girl lived here. Notice the random white molding- that was a window at one point.
 
This bathroom was an extension so that mirror is back of that "window" in the pink bedroom.

 
Only bathroom
  


bedroom ceilings









basement- wood paneling, full size door and window!

hello pretty brick! not sure who covers brick with wood paneling... probably the same person who glues tile to a porcelain tub.


the furnace from 1920!


view from basement

After the initial tour we got to work... 


pathetic swing.



it's official!

RC got to work..

apparently RC has a little more aggression than I do.
Now that you've seen the inside, what do you think? It's crazy to think that all of those pretty pictures of homes I showed you before looked like this at some point! Thoughts? Anything we should keep?
